Why take this course?

This self-paced course covers nozzle and shell intersection reinforcement according to the EN 13445 design code. Participants learn the "pressure area method" for internal and external pressure loads, its application to shells and ends, and design considerations for adjacent openings and discontinuities. The course includes video lectures, quizzes, and offers a certificate with PDH credits upon completion.

About the course

Learn how to determine if there is adequate reinforcement at a nozzle/shell intersection according to the EN 13445 design code. In this Self-Paced course, participants will be taken through: the "pressure area method" used in EN 13445-3 Clause 9 for determining the necessary reinforcement of a nozzle or opening, its application for internal pressure loads and external loads (Clause 16), its application for shells and ends, which reinforcement can be included in the "pressure area method", the procedure for designing adjacent openings, when is an opening close to a discontinuity.
